Next Flightbeam airports for P3D - have your say!

How about a KPIT and KPHL. I’d also love to see KMKE done as well.

Cheers, Pete

My dream is detailed KLAX for Prepar3D

i7 8700K @4.8Ghz | Noctua NH-D15 | Asus ROG Maximus XI Hero | G.Skill TridentZ 4x8GB @3700Mhz | ROG Strix OC RTX 3080 Ti

KLAX

| Ryzen 7 7800x3D | MSI GeForce RTX 4090 Gaming Trio 24Gb | ASUS X670E-E ROG Strix | 64GB G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 | x2 32' 4K | Windows 11

Some of these suggestions by people are quite ridiculous. What is the point of asking for scenery that we already have for P3D? Be it P3Dv4 or P3Dv5. that in my view is working perfect and really no need to be replaced.

What we need is airports that haven't been produced in a ideal world. The only other one I'd say we could do with would be a updated Dubai as this is a major airport with very outdated by FlyTampa.

We don't need new versions of EGLL , KLAX , EDDF , RJTT , OMAA , KMIA , KEWR , EGKK , EGCC there is already good quality pay ware scenery out there for these airports.

That is like going out and buying two models of the same car just for the same person to use. I'm probably going to get slated by folk, but quite frankly I'm using my common sense and brain in not asking for airports we already have.

I hope posters are filling out the survey rather than just posting here.

Gigabyte x670 Aorus Elite AX MB; AMD 7800X3D CPU; Deepcool LT520 AIO Cooler; 64 Gb G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO DDR5 6000; Win11 Pro; P3D V5.4; 1 Samsung 990 2Tb NVMe SSD: 1 Crucial 4Tb MX500 SATA SSD; 1 Samsung 860 1Tb SSD; Gigabyte Aorus Extreme 1080ti 11Gb VRAM; Toshiba 43" LED TV @ 4k; Honeycomb Bravo.

 

How about two airports that are already done by local teams i.e. LKPR and LHBP. 

I suggested KEWR, KDTW, KLAX and MMMX. I can think of a couple others but they are done already and I'd rather widen the choices of addon airports available. I listed KEWR though because, in my honest opinion, the DD version isn't up to standards and also has some bleed through issues of the default P3D airport that are probably never going to get fixed judging by their forum. Also KLAX because FSDT's is old both in terms of tech as well as real world airport layouts.

I don't think it's ridiculous to ask for an airport that has been done.  Some of these haven't been updated in ages, and most of us suspect FlightBeam would do it better.  However, I see people posting their suggestions here and I just hope they filling out the actual survey since I presume that's what FlightBeam is actually looking at.

Yea yea, like you haven't seen KLAX which is of FSX level of detail 2011 year

Whilst I am a UK2000 beta tester, I also appreciate that the UK2000 versions of EGCC and EGKK could be improved. What I want to see is better quality high resolution textures on all of the buildings, plenty of internal detail where appropriate, and lots of clutter and other small items. What annoys me at times is when I switch to a top down view of an airport, and see images of small buildings that clearly do not have a representative 3D model. If a building is there in the real world, then I want to see it in the simulator! Another aspect of EGCC Manchester that I would like to see (in addition to the updated Terminal 2 main building and new pier) is the drop off in elevation of the terrain on the south side of the airport. The River Bollin runs underneath runway 05R/23L at one point, and there is a wooden bridge over the river. Stuff like that with plenty of realistic trees.

RJTT, KEWR, OMAA already have good quality payware?

If OMDB is 'very outdated' (it is), so are EGCC and KLAX. Scenery design has moved on, plenty of the suggestions listed on this thread look tired, have poor performance and/or no longer have up-to-date layouts of their real-world counterparts. But rather than call your thoughts ridiculous, this is just, like, my opinion, man...

I was surprised to see that they are working on an updated KPHX and KMSP (missed the announcement they made on 11/16).  Really curious to see what the "Captain's Edition" of KSFO brings as well.  In the end, I'm happy to see them still developing for P3D, not matter what airport(s) they end up doing!

Yep, FlyTampa OMDB is 100x the quality of FSDT KLAX.
